"I would love to make Evil Dead 4," said Raimi. "My brother and I plan to work on the script this summer."

His older brother Ivan Raimi served as his co-writer on Evil Dead 3: Army of Darkness and Drag Me to Hell.

Raimi has admitted that the project is not yet a certain thing.

"I would like to work on the script over the summer," he later told Bleeding Cool. "That much is true.

"But the reason to come back and do it again is only that they're making me, those fans... I am thinking about it, but a crowd goes 'Come on Sam, do it!' so I said 'OK, I guess I was talking to my brother about it'. But I feel like I was pushed into saying that, a little bit."

He said that Ivan Raimi has been encouraging him to return to the franchise after years of similar demands from Evil Dead fans.
